Overview

The V951 is a C-size VXI digital delay generator that accepts a single trigger input and generates six separately programmable delay outputs. The six channel delays may be combined in sequences to create three delay-and-width outputs. The module features a 32-bit dynamic range, 40-ps resolution, low jitter, and high rep-rate capability.
All channels are triggered simultaneously, and the module generates a "T0" edge 25 ns after the trigger, and six following delays, each programmable from 0 to 167.8 ms.


The outputs can also be configured to generate widths. This mode uses two channels, 1 and 2, to generate a pulse whose incidence is determined by channel 1's timing value and whose termination is determined by channel 2's timing value. Similarly, channels 3 and 4 , and 5 and 6 can be combined to operate in the width mode.

The V951 delay parameters may be programmed on-the-fly at VMEbus speeds without any generation of erroneous delays. All delay channels can be updated coherently.


The V956 option adds seven optical outputs. The standard version uses 850 nm lasers with ST connectors, and will couple a minimum of 250 microwatts into a 50/125 or 62/125 micron multimode fiber. The outputs are DC coupled and follow the corresponding T0 through T6 electrical outputs. User-accessible switches are provided to set the output polarity of each channel to positive, negative, or off.

Specifications

V951 VXI DIGITAL DELAY GENERATOR
CONFORMANCE
ANSI/IEEE 1014-1987 VMEbus specification. VXIC specification, Rev 1.4.
DEVICE TYPE
Register based slave: A16:D16:D08(EO).
POWER REQUIRED
+5: 3.0A max; +12: 1.5A max at startup, 825mA max after warm-up; -12: 1.1A max at start-up, 550mA after warm-up.
PACKAGING
Single-width, C-size VXI module.
TIMING CHANNELS
Six timing channels (1-6). In DELAY mode, the V951 produces six independent delays. In WIDTH mode, channels 1 and 2 (as well as 3 and 4 and 5 and 6) allow the generation of pulses with programmable delay and duration.
REP RATE

Up to 2.5 MHz.

INSERTION DELAY
25ns
RESOLUTION
39.0625 ps LSB (equivalent to a clock rate of 25.6 GHz).
RANGE
32 bits allows a full scale range of 167.7722 ms on all channels.
JITTER
Less than (50 ps + 1E-9 x programmed delay) RMS.
ACCURACY
+- (500 ps + timebase stability).
TIMEBASE
Ovenized oscillator. Temperature coefficient<10 ppB/deg C; aging below 1ppM/year. Oscillator may be phase locked to a 10 MHz external reference via the front panel CLOCK I/O connector.
INPUTS
EXT TRG: Adjustable threshold level +-2.5V, slope, and termination (Hi-Z, 50 ohms to ground).
OUTPUTS
One fixed position marker (T0) and six delay (1-6) outputs. In the DELAY mode, a given timing channel is routed to the similarly numbered output. In the WIDTH mode, the width waveform generated timing channels 1 and 2, are routed to output 2, with 3 and 4 routed to output 4, and 5 and 6 routed to 6. All outputs are commonly adjustable for a baseline of 0 to -2.5 volts and amplitude of 0 to +5 volts. The slew rates are better than 2V/nSec.

CONNECTORS
Std: SMB, Options: LEMO; LEMO with independent NIM outputs, Optical outputs.
